São Tomé and Príncipe is an island country in west-central Africa, consisting of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe and the surrounding islets, with the capital, São Tomé, located in the northeastern part of São Tomé. Located on the Gulf of Guinea, about 200 kilometers from the African continent, the country was colonized by Portugal in the 15th century and became independent in 1975, with Portuguese as the official language and an economy based on agriculture (cocoa, palm oil) and tourism. It should be noted that "Java" is not a city or region of the country; Java is the main island of Indonesia, with cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya, and has nothing to do with São Tomé and Príncipe, possibly due to a confusion of names.
Zunyi City is located in the north of Guizhou Province, in the combination of Sichuan, Guizhou and Chongqing provinces (municipalities), and is the center city of northern Guizhou. As an important turning point of the Chinese Revolution, the Zunyi Conference held in 1935 saved the Party, the Red Army and the Chinese Revolution at the critical moment, leaving behind a valuable red cultural heritage. The natural scenery and humanistic landscapes of the territory are intertwined, and the World Natural Heritage Chishui Danxia is famous for its Danxia landforms, waterfalls and bamboo sea, while the town of Moutai has given birth to the national liquor Moutai, which has become the core production area of China's liquor industry. Nowadays, relying on red culture, ecological resources and characteristic industries, Zunyi is building a modernized city integrating red tourism, ecological recuperation and green food, and is an important growth pole in Guizhou and even southwest China.
